Chapter 373 reported
The work behind enemy lines of the Eighth Route Army did not rely on propaganda alone, and sometimes it had to be carried out vigorously and resolutely.
Of course, it is impossible to blindly kill, this is not the style of the Eight Roads, only punish the first evil, no matter others, for some traitors who do not have much evil deeds, or mainly punish and educate.
Those who are just messing around, not pseudo-army traitors who are not devils, there is no need to make more killings, like those plainclothes teams, night raid teams, and other spy organizations, there are really no good people.
They are ruffians, they have become traitors with devils, and they are even more rampant, they do all kinds of evil, many anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians were arrested and killed by them, there is nothing to say about dealing with this, there is nothing to show mercy.
On the contrary, some local puppet governments, especially the township security chief, maintain low-level traitors such as the president, and they usually collect food or something for the devil at most.
Zhang Yunfei's attitude is still very clear, as long as they promise to do things for the eight roads, it is not impossible to open up the net, the so-called name of the person, the shadow of the tree.
His name Zhang Yunfei is still a bit of a deterrent in the realm of Pingchuan, and for a while, the puppet army traitors were caught by him, killed, and dismissed.
Zhang Yunfei, who went deep into the northern part of Pingchuan, made the Japanese puppet army in Pingchuan all the grass and trees for a while, and the puppet army was even more panicked.
Although Zhang Yunfei did not operate in the northern part of Pingchuan in the past, he made a lot of trouble in the southwest of Pingchuan, which made these traitors tremble for a long time.
With the spread of those who were dismissed, the news that he had come to the north of Pingchuan immediately spread, ignorant and fearless, but for Zhang Yunfei, they were too familiar with him, and they could write a book about his rumors.
The traitors' fear of him is naturally even more intense, and Zhang Yunfei picks some remote strongholds or township offices.
These traitors are not puppet soldiers, it would be good to have three or two bodyguards, and no matter how strong their residence is, it is not a stronghold of the turret, how can they block the attack of the Eighth Road.
This gave Maeda Ichiro a headache, and the place in Pingchuan was finally calm for a while without making trouble with the Eight Roads, and his neighbors swept away, but drove all the Eight Roads here.
What's even more deceptive is that in order to cooperate with the sweep of Qingling, his mobile forces in Pingchuan were withdrawn, and for a while, he was really powerless, so he could only watch the Eighth Road make trouble in his own jurisdiction, and there was nothing he could do.
He also studied the pattern of the activities of the Eighth Road, and after connecting the attacked strongholds and township offices into a line, it was not difficult to find that the area of their activities was in the northwest of Pingchuan.
These areas have a characteristic, far from the county seat, close to the northern mountains, relatively remote, and these places are also the most favored by the Eight Roads.
In other words, the Hashimoto idiot can't find the eight roads is very likely to be scattered in this area or hidden and waiting somewhere in this area.
Balu just jumped out of the encirclement of Qingling, but did not disappear immediately, but made a fuss in his own jurisdiction, which must have its purpose.
He studied it again and again, and felt that it was the stronghold here that restricted the movement of the Eight Routes, and the Empire's blockade policy still greatly restricted the Eight Routes.
Even in this kind of remote area, although the control has decreased, the surrounding strongholds also limit the activity area of the Eight Roads to a certain extent, so the Eight Roads will attack everywhere, cutting off all kinds of ears and eyes and sighs, and giving themselves more space for activities.
But what made Maeda crazy was that he knew that he knew, but what was the use, now he simply didn't have any extra troops at hand.
Although if it is squeezed, it can barely make do with a sweeping force dominated by the security army.
But what's the point of this, the combat effectiveness of this group of security forces really can't be counted on too much, he doesn't want to be like the one next door, who didn't catch the eight roads, but made himself disgraced.
Maeda is a little different from other devil officers, he likes to use strategy, knows how to advance and retreat, and when he encounters the enemy, he will not rush forward stupidly, he will calculate his own gains and losses.
At this point, he is less like a soldier and more like a politician, although he likes to smash things everywhere when he gets angry, but Maeda Ichiro has always prided himself on being a wise general, and many things have to be planned before acting.
This is all forced by the environment he is in, he has no tough background, let alone outstanding military experience, so every step is cautious, and there can be no mistakes.
He didn't want his military career to end as a garrison captain, but it was not ordinarily difficult for officers like them to be promoted, which also led to Maeda's cautious personality.
The promotion of officers like them, military merit and so on are secondary, and they can only slowly boil up their qualifications, until their bosses feel embarrassed if they don't give promotions anymore.
But if you want your boss to have such feelings, whether you have merit or not is secondary, and there is no merit and hard work, but there must be no mistakes, if you make mistakes in three days, how can the boss feel guilty about not giving you a promotion, unless you have a sick brain.
It doesn't matter how Maeda's respectful and cautious character is cultivated, anyway, he has roughly delineated the approximate hiding place of this eight roads.
But he doesn't have enough manpower and troops to encircle and suppress, so he won't rush forward so quickly, and the boss wants the result, not the process.
If you track down this gang of eight roads, but no one kills them in the end, the boss will only see the failure, and will not pay more attention to why he failed, let alone whether he has enough troops and manpower.
Maeda Ichiro knows very well that if you don't do something, you won't do anything wrong, and when you are not sure of eliminating this gang of eight roads, his cautious personality makes him decide not to find out.
So he immediately reported to his superiors, because Pingchuan's troops had been exhausted, and now this gang of eight roads was flowing to his own jurisdiction, destroying everywhere, and he had no troops at all to defend and encircle and suppress.
Since he couldn't do it himself, he handed over the problem, but if something went wrong, it was not his fault and responsibility.
Maeda Ichiro's report undoubtedly gave Hashimoto another slap in the face.
What did this guy Hashimoto Kakuichi do, except for making a fuss in Qingling County, he didn't find any trace of the Eighth Route Army at all.
The Eight Routes, who had worked so hard to encircle and suppress, not only sneaked up on the defenders everywhere, but even the supervisors sent by them could be blown up by people, and those Eight Roads disappeared from his so-called tight encirclement without realizing it, and then began to make trouble elsewhere.
No matter how you look at it, it is because of his incompetence that it will cause the Eighth Route to be so rampant and unscrupulous, because of his incompetence, he failed to encircle and annihilate this gang of Eight Roads, resulting in Pingchuan being attacked and destroyed, and suffering heavy losses.
